CAMBA LEGAL WRITING WORKSHOP WITH        YALE LAW SCHOOL LECTURER, NOAH MESSING

“Clear thinking always means clear writing and clear writing is always good writing.” Lord Macmillan. Whether you are a law school student, soon-to-be law clerk, or trial/appellate litigator, sound legal research and writing tools are fundamental. Please join CAMBA on September 1 where Yale Law School Lecturer, Noah Messing will conduct a writing workshop for CAMBA members. Noah is the author of the highly regarded “The Art of Advocacy: Briefs, Motions, and Writing Strategies of America's Best Lawyers,” and will share some of the most useful and effective legal writing and research principles. The program will focus on writing more clearly, powerfully, and succinctly.
